Some children in year 4 have been learning about the current political situation between the Ukraine and Russia. They have watched bbc news round and used the Oddizzi web site to investigate the reasons and factors behind the current conflict.
This week the we took a walk around the local area. We looked for (and found!) evidence of our mining heritage. Take a look at the objects in the picture. They are all connected with the life of a miner in some way (either at home or at work). Can you name the items and tell me something about them? A fantastic day (wearing 'designer' pants....and bright socks) celebrating our visit from Nick Sharratt. What a treat - he loved our art work and we loved his! On Tuesday we are extremely lucky to have author and illustrator Nick Sharratt in school with us - we are all very excited! |
